Disability confident leaders driving the third phase of business change on disability.
Join the PurpleSpace community today and help stimulate real conversations about disability and work.
The art and science of facilitating business change through the power of workplace networks and resource groups
Usually set up by the organisation itself to improve business performance and embed disability confidence within the company culture. They are sometimes called Steering, Advisory or Working Groups.
Generally created by disabled people to offer others support and guidance on managing an impairment or health condition while thriving at work. Peer group networks often include professional development components.
Primarily set up to act as a consultation group or a forum for the organisation to test out the development of policies, practices and procedures. They are usually led by business working with disabled employees.
Fusion networks (we've coined a new term here) combine elements of the other three types of network and at different times in different organisations each network function will take the lead in driving cultural change.

PurpleSpace membership starts from:
Invest in our work and help deliver our join strategic objectives
We are entering a third phase of change for disabled employees, where we are confidently telling our own stories and persuading our employers to invest in disabled talent. Networks are vital in helping individual disability confidence to flourish.
PurpleSpace has really helped to shape and deliver a Network plan that aligned to our organisational strategies and objectives. It has also provided the opportunity for me to engage with other Network Leaders to understand their plan and approach, sharing notes is always really helpful.
I'm delighted that Equal Approach has joined PurpleSpace as a Partner. This demonstrates our long standing commitment to supporting organisations to create inclusive environments for individuals with disabilities, and will create a disability confident culture change from the inside out.
